        Looks awesome!

        I'd love to give Vray a try, but I just can't justify the price.

          Thanks guys.

          Steelers, yes the color vegetation is Vue, the 3D mesh ones are from 3D tree generator.

          I have done the apartment (flats) and added it to scene, unfortunatly I have come to the end of SU as a tool from here and will need to continue in Max as SU's poly limit is about reached.

          These are both Podium 1,6

            Beautiful work. Are the roof tiles modeled or displacement?

                If you fancy uploading or sending the skp i can run it through maxwell render, i recon it would make a good comparison!

                (although obviously maxwell takes a little longer!)

                  Thanks again guys.

                  Karlfucious, there is no bumps, displacement or textures, everything is modelled, every brick, roof tiles, etc.

                  Decipher, I would like to but seems that the models are to be purchased after all, with an additional three that I have still to do.

                    Pete,

                    When you say continue in Max, do you generally just assemble your scene in Max and continue to model in SU? I'm really curious about your Max/SU integration. Do you do any rendering in Max?

                      Adam,

                      It's been a long time since I played with Max as far as modeling goes (not that much in the GUI has changed over the years) , so no I will just assemble there as it will handle high poly's with ease (even with the choking SU at at same time), I mentioned about a client that wanted something similar who has decided to take these plus a few others, I normally dispatch in .ma or .max for him to forward to his 'texture guy' for completion.

                      I do however render in Max occassionaly, normally for studio pre production product illustrations using Mental-ray, but that market was very niche and has slowed down to a crawl due to current economic conditions.

                        Pete,

                        Yeah, we are feeling the hurt from the economy as well. Hope things get back to normal soon.

                        You should check out this plugin for Mental Ray - http://www.3dtotal.com/services/pluggins/bluecherry_shop.asp It turns Mental Ray into Podium. ๐Ÿ˜„ ....and it's only $15.
